The glue's dried up and crumbled and my shoulder slips and
21
when it slips it bites tissue and grabs the nerve and then it bleeds internally.
22
So that's what I have and I have a limited shoulder.

38
because I'm still growing up and if I had known
39
that joints were going to go okay corners go knees hips I never knew my shoulder would.
40
so this is this is a condition that I will live with
41

Qu'est-ce que la technique du Shadowing ?

Le Shadowing est une technique d'apprentissage des langues fondée sur la science, développée à l'origine pour la formation des interprètes professionnels. Le principe est simple mais puissant : vous écoutez de l'anglais natif et le répétez immédiatement à voix haute — comme une ombre suivant le locuteur avec un décalage de 1 à 2 secondes. Les recherches montrent une amélioration significative de la précision de la prononciation, de l'intonation, du rythme, des liaisons, de la compréhension orale et de la fluidité.
